Meredith sideshows next week

The Meredith Music Festival is less than 2 weeks away, which of course means that it's sideshow time again.

Harbingers of lo-fi noise Holy Fuck will kick off their debut Australian performance with a bang as they play at Melbourne's Corner Hotel, with supports from Love Of Diagrams and Mountains In The Sky, on Wednesday 10th. They'll also be playing in Sydney and Brisbane.

The Moldy Peaches' Adam Green will be playing his first sideshow mere hours after his MMF performance at Melbourne's East Brunswick Club on Sunday 14th, followed by shows in Sydney and Brisbane.

The Mountain Goats take it a step further by going on a full blown national tour (yes, that includes you, Tasmania!), having had to postpone their tour earlier this year.

Holy Fuck touring soon

Early December will see Toronto's Holy Fuck perform in Australia for the very first time.

Known for their mesmerising live shows; expect tight space disco rhythms, robotic synth rock and spellbinding jams which build to all-out rave pandemonium.

On their chaotic, yet precise, recordings Holy Fuck don’t hide behind laptop computers and walls of synthesisers – think of them as a celebration of lo-fi noise and weirdo casio-driven rock. One might say that if modern electronic music is a highly sophisticated robot operated by hi-tech computers, Holy Fuck are the evil counterpart. They are less of a modern indie rock band than they are an exploded diagram of an indie rock band, splitting open to reveal their organic guts, tangled wires and broken bits of drumsticks. Their reputation as a must-see live band is TOTALLY deserved.

Last month saw Holy Fuck tour the UK with Foals, covering their track Balloons while Foals reciporcated by recording a cover of Super Inuit from Holy Fuck's debut album LP. In case you missed our post, here are the covers again:
